LeBron James rebuffs media again as slumping Lakers face ‘uncomfortable’ truth
NY Post
The Lakers have hit the skids, and LeBron James has no interest in addressing it.
The 40-year-old declined again to speak to the media on Saturday at Lakers practice, two days after he did not make himself available following the team’s Christmas Day loss to the Rockets, after which head coach JJ Redick went off on the team.
“Because we don’t care enough right now,” Redick said Thursday. “We all care. But we don’t do the things that are necessary. We don’t care enough to be a professional.”
Redick also declared Saturday’s practice would be “uncomfortable.”
“The truth is uncomfortable, and so you have to put everything out there, that’s all it is,” Redick said after the practice, per ESPN.
The Lakers (19-10) are tied for fourth in the Western Conference entering Sunday’s home game against the Kings, but they’ve lost three in a row and six of their last 10. During the three-game skid, the Lakers have been outscored 354-292.
